Saw Life of Chuck at a preview. I'm a fan of Flanagan (director). A very heart-warming, non-horror movie. It made me laugh, cry a little, and think about it for a few days. To paraphrase the late basketball coach Jim Valvano--that's a heck of day. Young actor--Chuck in mid school--was phenomenal.

I think Caitlin Clark--Angel Reese really did drive up lasting interest in the women's college basketball game because a male buddy and me are texting each other about this banger of a game right now between Maryland--South Carolina. Maryland, underdog, up six in first half!

TG: Hegseth, got any plans tomorrow?
PH: No.
TG: Really?
PH: Well, golfing with buddies at 0900 . Then I am hitting the Lowes in Tysons to pick up a lawn mower, hitting happy hour at Jack's for a few, then a dinner party at a neighbor on Saturday night.
TG: Sounds like plans.
PH: Nope. Not plans.

This memoir by indie rock's Neko Case (her own band, and New Pornographers) is incredible. She survived a rough childhood (poor, neglected) to carve out beauty as an artist and badass rocknrolla. If you like rock bios, this is great stuff. #NEKOCASE

WTF is this clown Bessent talking about?
We're going to hit a recession as "detox"? And we need to get banks lending again? The amount of outstanding bank and private lending loans has never been higher.

Just a quick observation that amid all the turmoil created by the Zelensky meeting, this got completely ignored: A Chinese citizen paid Trump $50 million for the SEC to drop its charges against him.
BREAKING

The SEC has just halted its fraud prosecution of Justin Sun, a Chinese national who has put more than $50 million in Trump's pocket since November through the purchase of crypto tokens from a Trump-backed company, World Liberty Financial.

A repeal of the carried interest loophole would be welcomed and long overdue (both Hillary and Trump made campaign promises to this back in 2016). But it will never happen. Just smoke for the Bannon side of the house.

It is now Trump's economy. Here is where we are at. I will bet that within 18 months Trump's numbers will be worse than Biden's in at least 6 of the following 8 criteria.
